Top 10 pick in the 2024 NHL draft reportedly hits the trade block
The New Jersey Devils are reportedly shopping the 10th overall pick in the 2024 NHL draft to land a top goaltender to bolster Sheldon Keefe's netminding.
The New Jersey Devils were quite the disappointment last year. After finishing second in the Metropolitan division in 2022-23, the Devils missed the playoffs entirely in 2023-24 and will now be picking 10th overall in the upcoming draft.
It has been reported that the Devils are shopping their 10th overall pick to get some help in the net.
Devils open to trading 10th overall pick
GM Tom Fitzgerald spoke on the matter sharing he is open to moving the pick.
"If we feel it helps us now and in the foreseeable future, then, yes, I'm listening. I haven't gotten anything yet but the more I talk to teams, I say �Listen, I'm open to moving No. 10, but it's going to have to be something (significant).'" - New Jersey Devils GM Tom Fitzgerald
The Devils will look to make the playoffs again next year and hopefully go on a deep playoff run with their young core of Jack Hughes, Nico Hischier, Luke Hughes, Simon Nemec, and plenty of others.
